Infinite true path

Chapter 93 Decline

Huan Yin took another deep look at Sister Jiujiu's room, then turned and walked out.

"Sister must have gone out." He told himself.

After walking out of Huan Jiujiu's room, Huan Yin once again concealed himself and walked towards the direction of his room in his memory.

Huan Yin's room was not far from Huan Jiujiu's room, and Huan Yin arrived here soon. At this moment, the door of this room was locked, and there was no servant standing outside the door. This room should be cleaned frequently. At least from the outside, the door and windows are spotless.

Huan Yin walked into his room, expecting to see scenes he had seen countless times in his childhood. He thought he could find the most memories here, but unexpectedly, the appearance of the room had changed drastically.

Now, Huan Yin's room looks like it is occupied by a young child. There are children's toys scattered everywhere in the room. There is even a small space next to the master bedroom, which seems to be for the child's nanny. For rest.

Could it be that the Huan family already has another generation? If this is the case, then it is a natural arrangement to give your room to your children. After all, I am afraid that I have faded away in the hearts of my family. Who will keep the room for me?

Huan Yin walked to the desk and picked up a somewhat worn book from the ground.

"Immortals and gods have different ideas." Huan Yin read out the title of the book gently. This book was the one he used when he was a child to ask his father that he wanted to become an immortal. Huan Yin learned about "immortal" for the first time from this petition. Unexpectedly, the scene in his room changed drastically, and the book was still there.

Huan Yin finally found some memories of his own in the house. Then, his eyes swept back and forth in the house, trying to find more traces of the past. In this way, Huan Yin picked up several old books one after another on the floor and in the corners of the house. These were all books he had read when he was young.

"The new owner of this house seems to like reading very much." Huan Yin looked at the books he had packed up and smiled. I don’t know whose child lives in this house, but it looks a bit like him when he was young. If his father could see this child, he would definitely like him very much.

"However, it's still not cherished enough." Huan Yin said to himself, straightening the bent footers of these books one by one, lightly dusting them off, and placing them neatly on the desk. .

After doing this, Huan Yin searched around the house again. After making sure that he could no longer find any old things, he walked out of the door. It seems that if the new owner of the house didn't like reading, I might not even be able to find those books in the house. I wonder if the child will be shocked when he sees the messy books neatly arranged when he comes back.

After looking at his room, Huan Yin had nothing to worry about here. He is going to the backyard now. The ancestral temple is in that direction. He is going to pay homage in front of his father's soul, and then go to find Sister Jiujiu.

Go east from the residence and walk along the promenade, passing through the beautiful scenery on both sides of the promenade, to the backyard of Huan Mansion. The backyard is a place where the masters of the Huan family enjoy the scenery and rest. In the past, when Duke Huan was recovering from a serious illness, Huan Yin's mother Li Yun often helped him here to enjoy the scenery.

When Huan Yin came to the backyard, he found several servants standing at the door, and the sound of someone talking came from inside the door. Huan Yin could still recognize these voices immediately even after several years - they were the voices of the elders in the family.

Huan Yin walked into the courtyard door, and a face that was more familiar than the voice caught Huan Yin's eyes. The eldest lady Zhu, and the two side wives Wang and Liu were sitting in the small pavilion in the backyard. Next to them stood a young woman in her twenties. The young woman was holding a little boy. It looked like Not much smaller than Xiaotian.

"Xiaojun, take Lin'er over there to play." Mrs. Zhu said to the young woman.

"Yes, mother." The young woman bowed to Mrs. Zhu and the others, then took the child and left. Unexpectedly, the child refused to leave and looked at Mrs. Zhu: "Where is grandma?"

When Mrs. Zhu heard the child's words, she looked at him lovingly: "Lin'er, be good, grandma will go over and play with you in a minute, okay?"

After hearing what Zhu said, the boy pursed his lips and said coquettishly, "Then the second grandma and the third grandma will also come to accompany Lin'er."

"Okay, okay, let's go and stay with Lin'er for a while. We all love Lin'er the most, and Lin'er has to be obedient, right?" Wang and Liu coaxed in unison.

"Okay then, Lin'er has resigned." After saying that, the child bowed to the three ladies in a decent manner, pulled his mother and left.

After a moment of silence, when the mother and son walked away, Wang was the first to speak: "Sister, has the situation in our house worsened again?"

Zhu's eyes moved back from the mother and son, and her face instantly became a little angry: "That evil man spends money wantonly and ignores family affairs. This time, he spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for a prostitute. !”

"What! Hundreds of thousands taels?" Wang and Liu exclaimed.

Huan Yin looked at the three elders in front of him with confusion. Although hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were a huge amount of money for most families, to the Huan family, it was not a big deal. For some reason, the ladies showed such shocked expressions at this moment because of hundreds of thousands taels. At least when Huan Yin was still at home, even if it was a few million taels, the ladies would not blink an eye at it.

After exclaiming, helpless expressions gradually appeared on the faces of Wang and Liu. Finally, Wang said: "Well, since the master left, Huan Yu has been having sex all day long, and apart from him, there is only one male in my Huan family." , are all women, how can anyone be in charge of the family business? In the past few years, we have been sitting on nothing, only going out and not getting in. If Lin'er grows up properly, he may make a comeback, but Huan Yu is really hateful. , not to mention ruining the family tradition, but also squandering money because of it. No matter how big the Huan family's fortune is, I can't bear his troubles. "

"Oh, it's all my fault. When he was disrespectful to the master, I should have thought that he would do the same to us. Now he is the dominant one in the family, and we can't do anything to him." Mrs. Zhu's face was filled with regret.

"Sister, how much silver do you have in your house?" Mrs. Liu couldn't help but ask.

When Zhu heard this question, his face was full of pain: "Less than four million taels."

Less than four million taels! Huan Yin couldn't believe his ears. He didn't expect that the Huan family had declined so much in the past few years since he left. You know, in the eyes of his father, a business of four million taels is not a big business, but now the Huan family only has so much money. How has Huan Yu squandered it in the past few years? This is simply unbelievable.

For such a large Huan Mansion, even the daily expenses would probably cost around 100,000 taels a year. Coupled with Huan Yu's squandering, how long can these 4 million taels sustain the Huan Mansion? No wonder Huan Yin felt like there were no servants anywhere when he entered the mansion. This was probably because the mansion was weak, so the ladies dismissed many of the servants.

After hearing what the eldest lady said, Wang and Liu were not as surprised as Huan Yin. They just nodded silently, as if they were already used to such a result.

"Sister, if we don't find a way to control Huan Yu, we will be doomed." Huan Yin saw a trace of despair in Liu's eyes.

"All those who should be dismissed have been dismissed, and those who remain now are all invited by him at a high price, and they are all his people. Now in the mansion, we are trying to save money, but he spends money like water. Not only do we live in poverty now, , few people even listened to his words, what should we do to deal with him?" Wang was also a little desperate.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. Back then, I was the one who helped this evil obstacle to his current position. I didn't expect that now he doesn't recognize his relatives, and it's me who has implicated his two sisters." Mrs. Zhu regretted it.

"If, if we had followed the master's wishes back then, wouldn't things be like this now?" Ms. Liu said softly.

"What do you mean, sir? You mean because..." Wang didn't say any more.

"It's all me, this vicious woman who only cares about her own selfish interests, to do such a thing. Now I'm reaping the consequences, and I deserve it. The master has gone through ups and downs in his life to develop the Huan family to such a great place. His vision is , how could it be wrong? If Huan Yin takes over as the head of the family, the whole family will not decline to this point. I will definitely go to hell. How can I have the face to see the master?" Zhu became more and more excited. The body couldn't stop shaking.

The voices behind him continued, and the regrets of the three elders were endless. Huan Yin sighed heavily and walked towards the ancestral temple.

Huan Yin could tell that the person whom the eldest lady called "Xiaojun" should be his sister-in-law, Huan Yu's wife, and the child Lin'er she was holding should be Huan Yu's son. They may have pinned their hopes on Lin'er for a long time, but they didn't expect that Huan Yu didn't even care about his wife and children, so how could he leave them any hope?

Huan Yin has never seen his three sisters. Judging from the ages of Huan Ling and Huan Yuchu, they must all be married. But Huan Jiujiu is only fifteen, is she also married?

Huan Yin's mood became a little depressed. Although he had become an immortal, this was his home after all. Seeing the decline of his family to this point, he couldn't help but feel sad. My father is looking at the tragic situation of his family in the sky, and he probably can’t feel at ease, right?

Huan Yin came to the door of the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall and the surrounding area were a desolate scene. Dead branches and leaves and cobwebs could be seen everywhere - no one had cleaned it for an unknown period of time.

Filial piety comes first. If the clan members forget to perform filial piety, the family will not last long. The current situation of the Huan family is exactly like this. Although it seems that only this place in the entire Huan family is completely in decline, in fact, this place represents the entire Huan family and the history of the Huan family. Therefore, the decline here will spread quickly.

Huan Yin pulled down the cobwebs in front of the ancestral hall, pushed open the dusty heavy wooden door, and walked in.

I hope everyone can vote for me every day, thank you!
